Bar & Garden

Pubs in Hertfordshire

Set in the beautiful village of Chenies, The Bedford Arms is the perfect place for a relaxing drink. With exposed beams, sofas and an open fire, the Shire bar is comfortable and welcoming, stocking classic ales as well as a well-chosen wine list. We pride ourselves on being one of the friendliest countrypubs in Hertfordshire.

Large gardens

A drink with friends in the sunshine of an English village pub – is there a better way to spend a sunny afternoon? Enjoy yourself in our beautifully kept gardens, in the sunshine or the shade, provided by our mature oak trees, all against the backdrop of the fabulous Chenies countryside.

Great pub food

With a seasonal menu that can be relied on for everything from bar snacks to a full three-course meal, eating at the Bedford Arms is serious business. Our famous Sunday roasts include tender beef that we hang here on the premises, and mouth-watering desserts that will live on in your memory long after your visit.

Oak-paneled restaurant

Our classic restaurant is at the heart of our traditional country house hotel. Expect a luxurious dining experience brought to you by our team of friendly knowledgeable staff, who can be relied on to help you choose from our extensive menu. Country pubs in Hertfordshire with a better kitchen than ours are hard to find!

'Bedford Betty'

In the warmer months of the year you will find our classic 1950's Citroen van 'Betty' parked in the garden. Betty is fully fitted out as a mobile bar and serves the full range of wines and bottled beers.
